You have to make it. There's no other choice. You've got to make it. You have to become the best of the best of the best in your field. Aiming for anything lower is not worth it. Put in all the hard work it takes. Fear is not an option. Become good enough to trust your own self

how do i speed run the basics for reinforcement learning? is there some toy example I ought to implement?

I’m obsessed with the startup ideation process. Eg. How do we create more hyper-growth companies & what were the top companies really like at the earliest days? This book might be the closest thing to a repeatable framework. https://t.co/6hgX5AybZf

I hate the discourse that tries to pit STEM and Humanities majors against each other, when they should be teaming up to bully the true enemies: Business Majors.

Become AI polymath - Play with trained models, learn prompt engineering, connect them with eachother, give them vector database memory, put them into agent or multiagent frameworks such as Langchain, AutoGen or CrewAI, and so on, with for example Andrew Ng. - Implement and https://t.co/OAqKjkwSgl
